## Quick Tips

1. **Start small** — create one AI employee and test chatting before building complex campaigns
2. **Quality over quantity** — a few well-written knowledge base documents beat many low-quality ones
3. **Test your sequences** — always send yourself a test before launching a campaign
4. **Save your work** — most changes save automatically, but click Save when you see the button
5. **Use search** — most pages have search to help you find what you need quickly
